Everyone changed clothes finally! The Battle Rounds started Monday night on The Voice and already things are moving along at a steady pace. We had six great battles tonight and only lost three contestants, so that speaks well for the pairings, I think. If I’m being honest, I’m not sure that the coaches actually decide on […]

The Voice coaches filled their teams last night, and we are ready to move on to the battle rounds on Monday, October 10th! I feel like we just started and already we’re moving on to kicking people out. I think there are a few standouts but, unlike last year, there is no clear winner anointed by the […]

The Voice on NBC kicked off its 11th season last week. I had the opportunity to join in on a conference call with some of the contestants that made it through to the next round. Read on to find out what child star Billy Gilman has been up to and find out what goes through […]

I’m trying to find something interesting and quirky to say about the first week of The Voice blind auditions, but I think the fact that I can’t find anything funny to say is telling. I’m unfortunately already bored, and that is disappointing because I was looking forward to a jolt of energy with the addition […]

Season 13 of So You Think You Can Dance came to a close tonight and if you’ve read any of my recaps over the season, you know I was not a fan of this format. I was angry for a full 24 hours when the Next Generation contest was announced, and I waited for a […]

When Fox first announced that this season of my favorite summer show was going to be about kids I was furious. I admit it. Like cancel Journeyman furious. Like, no final season of Las Vegas furious. I’m still not even convinced at this point that Nigel Lythgoe loves the format and I’m not sure he […]

After a two-week Olympic break, our favorite kids of summer returned to the So You Think You Can Dance stage Monday night to battle it out for $250,000 and the title of the Favorite Kid? Ok, I don’t know what their title will be or even what we’re supposed to vote for honestly. I’ve missed […]

America’s Got Talent returns this week after being on a hiatus for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. Just before the break, I had a chance to participate in a conference call with Mel B. and Simon Cowell and yes, my inner fangirl was freaking out! Simon Cowell joined the AGT judging panel for the […]

I have to start by saying that the group numbers tonight were fantastic. Opening up the show was a Toy Repair shop that had been taken over by the misfit toys. The whole thing was like Toy Story met up with those toys from the Nutcracker and they all got down with some Phoenix and Pharside […]
